General description

α-Naphtylamine and sulfanilic acid are used for detection of nitrate reduction by bacteria. Organisms containing nitrate reductase reduce nitrate to nitrite, which forms a diazonium salt with sulfanilic acid and reacts with α-naphtylamine to form a red azo dye.

Ascorbic acid is a small-molecule reductant with multiple functions in vivo. Reducing ascorbic acid intake leads to a lack of hydroxylation of prolines and lysines, causing a looser triple helix and resulting in scurvy. Ascorbic acid also acts as an

Aromatic amino acids strongly promote cross-β amyloid formation; whether the amyloidogenicity of aromatic residues is due to high hydrophobicity and β-sheet propensity or formation of stabilizing π-π interactions has been debated. To clarify the role of aromatic residues on amyloid

Vibrios are motile, curved or comma-shaped bacilli and have a single polar flagella with sheet proteins. They are often found in open water, freshwater and saltwater.

There are many other methods of detection to indicate the presence of E. coli. Review common tests and biochemical reactions for this contaminant.

Specific agars and broths support detection and cultivation of Campylobacter, requiring complex media with essential supplements.

For microbiologists the most fundamental stain was developed in 1884 by the Danish bacteriologist Hans Christian Gram.
